Surf Spots
1. Ollies Point- Right point at a rivermouth, very good. Not possible to hike or drive in. Boat access only. Rent a boat at Playas del Coco or hook up with the Rancho Diablo Surf Camp in Playa Grande.
2. Witches Rock- A small estuary comes out into the ocean and creates sandbars for Witches Rock. Very hollow lefts and rights depending on the sandbars and the swell. In winter (Dec.-Mar.) the Papagayo winds make it much colder, so itís not a bad idea to bring a springsuit. Mosquitos are really bad in the camping area. Bring all supplies. Access is by 4x4 or boat. Beware of crocodiles in the estuary.
3. Playa Grande- Good SW facing beach break surf to the North of Tamarindo. One of the most consistent breaks in Costa Rica. From Tamarindo, 20 minutes by foot, or 25minutes by car.
4. Tamarindo- Right point and a right and left rivermouth break.
5. Langosta- Right and left rivermouth break five minutes south by car from Tamarindo, or walk around the point. Breeding ground of the giant sea turtles. Notorious for car theft.
6. Avellanes- Good right with rock bottom in front of a small estuary located just west of Paraiso.
7. Playa Negra- Just south of Avellanes. A right reef bottom break.
